OAR will attract a lot more people than ZZ Top.

You clearly haven't been to Baltimore lately. ZZ Top is considered contemporary for the fine citizens of Dundalk, Glen Burnie, and greater Baltimore County. OAR is something you use to dispose of Omar Little's boyfriend.

LOL. College kids are who fill the infield. Not older B-more blues / rock musicians.

What "college" do you think the people that are usually in the infield attend? New England Tractor Training School?

Seriously, go to the Preakness once and tell me you think there are legitimate college students lurking about in that infield.

I've been to the Preakness a few times, worked in the infield for my uncle (we had a hotdog stand instead of the BBQ stand.. sold like 8 grand worth of $4 hotdogs, unreal). I know a lot of college kids from Maryland that go to the Preakness (or used to, I'm 5 years from my college age now)..

It really is 75% college students.

I think antitrust is confusing young Baltimorians with "college students." There is a huge difference. Let's pick out the "college student" here:

lol.. you have a high opinion of people from B-more, dont ya?


I was there for War Emblem, Funny Cide, Smarty, Bernardini... not last year so it could have been different.

Looked like a Saturday Morning frat party for me.. People puking by 8am, girls flashing their tits all day. It could have been fun if I wasnt working.

and thats why i get seats for this event. sat infield at the derby for the last 10 years with absolutely no complaints, but refuse, REFUSE, to pay $50 to rub elbows with them kind of people. Which says a lot, b/c im actually from maryland. In all honesty, its hardly just marylanders in the infield, the worst of the worst come down from jersey, pa, and new york...its an east coast sh!t show

This should be great for telling stories afterward.

ive been going since Afleet Alex won and last year there was NOBODY there....i have reserved seats on the rail but riding the shuttle in it was like a ghost town...literally 12 people on shuttles that the previous year were standing room only.

by the way the afleet alex preakness was probably my favorite so far.....street sense-curlin duel is probably second.
